User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_13_0) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/62.0.3202.94 Safari/537.36 Steps to reproduce: Return only 1 MB of video per request. I though I had this working in 2015 but it's not a recent regression. Actual results: Firefox asks for the next range but it's the wrong one (131,072-) and then firefox gives up. eg: 0- 0- 999999/12498473 12419072- 12419072-12498472/12498473 131072- 131072- 1131071/12498473 Expected results: Firefox should ask for the correct range (1,032,768-) and keep asking for ranges as required, like Chrome. eg: 0- 0- 999999/12498473 12419072- 12419072-12498472/12498473 1032768- 1032768- 2032767/12498473 2032768- 2032768- 3032767/12498473 3032768- 3032768- 4032767/12498473 etc
Firefox is the odd one out as this works on Edge and Internet Explorer as well as Chrome.

The columns are (respectively) requested and returned ranges ( https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7233 ). I'll work on providing an example link.

P2 - simplify the if statement of "reopen on error". https://reviewboard.mozilla.org/r/201870/#review207578 ::: dom/media/MediaCache.cpp:2155 (Diff revision 1) > + * +--------+-----------+----------+ > + * | -1 | 0 | yes | > + * +--------+-----------+----------+ > + * | -1 | > 0 | seekable | > + * +--------+-----------+----------+ > + * | 0 | X | no | This table is really useful! Was the ascii art needed? :-) This case (length==0 -> don't reopen) doesn't match the code for a non-0 offset and a seekable transport: `(offset == 0 || seekable) && offset != length` => `(false || true) && true` => true. It could be fixed by adding `&& mStreamLength != 0` (assuming the table is correct).

No. plus sign '+', vertical bar '|' and dash '-' are all you need to make a decent table. https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/33c90c196bc405e628bc868a4f4ba29b992478c0/dom/media/MediaCache.cpp#2068-2070 mStreamLength is adjusted as mChannelOffset advances. So we always have mChannelOffset <= mStreamLength if mStreamLength >= 0. When mStreamLength is 0, the only valid value for mChannelOffset is also 0.
Thanks for the reviews!

Thanks, build "59.0a1 (2017-11-23)" can play the whole video now. There is a stuttering issue with the implementation because FireFox is waiting until it's all out of data before fetching the next range. It would be better to fetch data when the remaining data is less than the total and less than the last range size (effectively a cache/buffer).

Let's wait to see if bug 1419668 fix the stuttering for you.

Can you go to about:config and change "media.memory_cache_max_size" to 1 to see if it works for you?
I'm not sure if the nightly updated again since I last checked but now there is a crash every second page view, and the cached content indicator in the video progress bar is jumping all over the place. The video did not stutter when it did work though. I did not edit the config. I did send 2 crash reports.
Depends on: 1441153
The example seems to work in Firefox 60.0.2. But the range is overly greedy and requests the whole file from the server instead of as "on demand" like Chromium. "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:60.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/60.0"
No longer depends on: 1441153
